Electronics and Communication Engineering

Introduction
Electronics and Communication Engineering is one of the old branches in the field
of engineering. Electronics and Communication cover vast areas like semi-conduc-
tors, communications, chip design, processor design, etc. in the field of engineering.
With the explosive growth of communication media in today’s digital scenario,
Electronics and Communication Engineering has become an ever growing industry.
It is the utilization of science and maths applied to practical problems primarily in
the field of Communication. Electronic Communication Engineers engage in
research, design, development and testing of the electronic equipment used in various
communications systems.

Curriculum
The curriculum is organized to get a strong foundation on various aspects of Electronics
and Communication Engineering such as Digital Systems Design, Electromagnetic Theo-
ry, Digital Signal Processing, Microprocessors and Microcontrollers, Electronic Circuits,
VLSI Design, Digital Communication, Analog Communication, Control Engineering,
and Microwave Engineering. As part of the curriculum design all the students will learn
Physics fundamentals in the first year itself.
In the final year, the students have an opportunity to choose elective courses based
on the identified areas of own interest. Some of the interested areas are Embedded
Systems, Wireless Communication, Satellite Communication, Biomedical Signal Processing,
VLSI Fabrication Technology, Speech Processing, Optical Communication. All these
areas play a significant role in developing applications ranging from a small chip in any
device to a space craft.

Higher Education Opportunities for
Electronics and Communication Students

There is a lot of scope for students doing MS, ME or MTech in the field of electron-
ics and communication. Having masters will certainly improve your career pros-
pects and help you get hired by top MNC’s. Governments across the globe are
spending millions of dollars in this field for research and development.
So, scope for doing PhD in these fields is a risk worth taking. You will get scholar-
ships and financial aid to do PhD from various government and non-government orga-
nizations. If you are planning to do MS or PhD programs in the US, you have to clear
GRE and TOEFL exams. For MTech, you should score high in GATE exams.

Placements

Placement takes place during penultimate year or final year of the course.
Placements are done in two stages
In the first stage, there will be
Aptitude Test and Technical Test. 
Technical Test will be mainly based on Electronics, Circuit
Design, Communication, Microprocessor and Digital
Electronics. Based on the performance in the first stage, you
will be selected to the second stage.

In the second stage, there will be


Group Discussion (GD) followed by Face to
Face Technical Interview and HR Interview.
Technical interview will be based on what you have learned
in your course. Interviewer look’s for your knowledge on a
topic as well as your level of confidence.
HR Interview will be based on your personality. If you are not
getting placed, try for internships. Internship helps you gain experience and
provides remuneration.
